The same old story

“It was hoped that Plaid entering government would bring fresh thinking to transport planning in Wales and challenge Welsh Labour’s road building programme.

“Ieuan Wyn Jones’ support for the M4 Relief Road however has shown that Plaid is also committed to encouraging traffic growth with resulting greenhouse gas emissions, air pollution, and damage to natural habitats.”

"Ambitions to cut carbon emissions in Wales will not be realised unless the growth in car use is curtailed, he said.

“Wales is one of only three governments worldwide which must promote sustainable development as part of its statutory duty – this decision calls this into question.”
